Hello,my name Amy Polo.I am a descendant of Marco Polo. The Silky Stuff (my shop) is about to run out of silk and I need to get some. I'm going to Chang'an,Samarkand,Kashgar,and Istanbul. Before I go, I will need water, food, one of my horses, my friend(Jessie) with her horse,and clothes to wear. I will start with Chang'an.

Chang'an is one of the most historic cities in all of China. It is home of such famous attractions as the Terra. A plathora of historial and archeological sites are located in and around Chang'an. There I brought silky fabric. All I ate was peaches.

Istanbul is my last stop. Jessie and were tried because some people tried taking Jessie's silk. Then I had to beat them up and watch and see if they were coming back. I had something that looks nasty but is really good. It is called turkish olives. I also brought clothes when I go back home. Jessie and I took pictutes since it was our last day.
